About the Item

Incredible Mid Century bronze representation casing scene of the Balawat gate, which hails from Balawat (also known as Imgur-Enlil) in northern Mesopotamia, Iraq, and dates back to the Neo-Assyrian Period during the reign of King Shalmaneser III (858-824 BCE), presented with exquisite detail and history. The bronze casing showcases intricate designs and details that are a testament to the artistic and metallurgical skills of the time. The Neo-Assyrian Period was known for its advancements in art, and this detail exemplifies that craftsmanship. The relief work and patterns on the bronze casing depict scenes from the period or symbolic elements related to the culture and beliefs of the Assyrians. It provides valuable insights into the aesthetics and culture of that era, offering a glimpse into the artistic expression of the Neo-Assyrian civilization. The scene is frame upon a wood frame that further encases the battle scene.
